Recovery of Unpaid Invoices under MSA – California Jurisdiction

Matthew Riordan

"Working with Matthew has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. I came to him with a difficult payment dispute involving a large vendor, and he navigated the situation with absolute professionalism, precision, and persistence. From day one, he quickly understood the contract, the dispute, and the urgency of the matter. His communication was clear, timely, and always proactive — I never had to wonder what was happening or what the next step would be. He drafted a detailed demand letter, handled all attorney-to-attorney communication, and strategically managed the entire negotiation process. Thanks to Matthew’s persistent follow-up and well-crafted legal arguments, we were able to recover 100% of the amount owed without needing to go through arbitration. This saved my company an enormous amount of time, money, and stress. His efforts directly made this outcome possible. Beyond the legal work, Matthew is genuinely professional, honest, and client-focused. He took the time to understand my situation, including personal circumstances, and always acted with integrity. I’m truly grateful for his dedication. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone dealing with contract disputes, unpaid invoices, or arbitration-related issues. He exceeded every expectation, and my company will absolutely continue to rely on him as our trusted legal partner. Thank you, Matthew — you’ve been incredible to work with."
